This is the same language in the expanded policy as well.

It doesn't mention your ability to maintain an FAA physical, just that you can or can't exercise your certificate as a result of that condition. If you received a medical RA and then the company no longer allows you to exercise your certificate in your BES, it certainly would seem to qualify to me. I'm assuming that the RAP was legitimate enough to only afford RAs to those with supported conditions, not just those who didn't want to get it for whatever reason. I have no idea how many of the people in that group were religious/medical RAs, so this is largely academic. There's likely so few of them that we may never actually know what happens.
